John’s 8X8 CSSU + desk(s)

At 8ft X 8ft, this is the largest and most ambitious build to date — and also the largest I can make a CSSU based on existing stock limitations… and, come to discover, workshop-space limitations. Made of 

Made from maple multi-ply and luan-mahogany, it's a 3-bay unit with individual, custom flip-down desks. There's loads of great grain alignment and minimal details — it's pretty bad-ass. Next up — a library ladder to attach up top.

Finished installation:

[The three center desks are designed to flip up into the body of the cabinet when not in use. You can flip each up/down independently and are held up by internal magnets embedded in each desktop.]
